George Barris, Black and White Photograph, Marilyn Monroe, Santa Monica Beach 1962. 14x11 inches. This is from a set of photos taken of Monroe shortly before her death. In this image, a closeup, she is holding her sweater tight, lying on the beach. There are small pin mark in the corner of the photo.

"In 1986, George Barris, an American free-lance photojournalist, decided to publish photographs he had taken of Marilyn Monroe in June and July of 1962 in California. They were probably the last ever taken of her alive. These photos, as well as text (from interviews, of which only one was recorded) were to become a book, an illustrated biography that would, in Marilyn's words, "set the record straight" - it was never finished."



This photograph of Marilyn Monroe are from the collection of photos taken by Barris in 1962, and printed in the 1980s.
